Easter Weekend

The Great Easter Picnic, or the Nichols (Coker's Grandmother's) Family Reunion is always the Saturday before Easter.  We had so much fun!  It was hot out in Shep!  This was the first time in 30? years the picnic was at Coker's grandparents' farm in Shep.  

The egg toss and water balloon toss were exciting.  Coker and Paul paired up, while TJ and I formed a team.

 There were eggs to hunt,

 A baby to hold,

 (Paul could only be convinced to give Caden back for a diaper change)

A mule to ride, and cousins to play.

Finally, Easter day came.  I got a silly shot before church.

 And a "serious" shot.

 We hunted more eggs and feasted at Aunt Sharon's house.

In his excitement to get out of the car and into Aunt Sharon's house, TJ ran into the car door and split his head.  Luckily, "Aunt" Cissy was there to clean him up.  TJ is tough and hard-headed, so he rested a little and was ready to play again quickly.  Look here if you want to see the gash!
